Your sword, known to collectors as a Masonic sword, was made after the ACW, and are often found at antique and Civil War relic shows.
They rarely are priced over a few hundred dollars for one in excellent condition, usually much less.
Hello and thank you if you know anyone who is interested that collects these shorts have them hit me up please I'm looking to sell it I have no use for it thank youHello and welcome to the talk forum from Southeast Missouri located on the banks of the muddy Mississippi River. Definitely not a war time piece. Still a nice fraternal sword.
This was given to me in a swap over a laptopHello, I am not an expert but I have been burned in my learning exprience. The writing on your sword seems to me to be acid etch or laser....back in the day they did engraving. I may be wrong....I own a similar sword that I overpaid for.
Agreed.It is from the Order of The Odd Fellows
I was just looking up a bunch of them and it looked like one of the one from Civil WarWelcome! Looking forward to your perspective in our discussions!
It's a ceremonial sword of the Grand United Order of Oddfellows, a predominantly British fraternity. How did you determine it was a Civil War sword?
